David was very hospitable and organized. We appreciated the privacy of the apartment and had a lovely stay. Would recommend this to anyone looking for a a nice vacation spot.

Marya2017-07-13T00:00:00Z

David is an excellent host and I would highly recommend staying with him!

Christine2017-05-07T00:00:00Z

David was a great host. The apartment was excellent and the location was great.

Eric2017-05-12T00:00:00Z

Can't comment much as I couldn't make it to his place due to family emergency.

Rudra Fateh2017-04-19T00:00:00Z

David was very flexible and accommodating. He was always available via message throughout my stay. The location is walking distance to everything you need. Bedding and towels were a bit worn. A good budget option in Cairns.

Cameron2017-07-02T00:00:00Z

Having used Airbnb all over the world, this was by far my best experience. It was a real pleasure staying in such a great home with such a nice chap as a landlord. Perfect location and a great place to call home. Will definitely stay next time!

Matthew2017-02-08T00:00:00Z

Alexandre2017-05-29T00:00:00Z

Cam's place was much more spacious than the photos hinted at, and was very comfortable to stay in. The airconditioning throughout the unit was fantastic and fully furnished kitchen made meals easy. Added in with the 2 minute walk to Coles, and the place was perfect.

Natalie2017-05-12T00:00:00Z

Great location. Very convenient. Very clean. Would stay here again!

Rebecca2017-04-17T00:00:00Z

Very recommended. Great location as was able to walk to Cairns Central and to the Esplanade quite easily. The place suited our needs and was very clean and basic. As the room is below others, the sounds of foot steps can be heard at some weird times throughout the day and night.

Scott2017-08-01T00:00:00Z

We had a great stay at cams place. It was much nicer and larger than it looks in the photos. Shopping centre was just across the road and the esplanade was about a 15minute walk. It can get a little noisy from people staying upstairs but all in all it wasn't enough to disrupt our stay. We would definatley stay again

Lee was a really friendly and helpful host! Her place is in a great location within walking distance of Cairns centre and pier! Clean and comfy room. We enjoyed our stay here! Thanks Lee!

Elaine2017-06-20T00:00:00Z

Perfect room for a quick stop while visiting GBR. Room exactly as described and Lee goes extra miles helping things out. Location is next to central mall, about 20-25min walk to the marina.

Ellie2017-05-13T00:00:00Z

I stayed at Lee's Room Nr. 3 for 3 nights in April 2017. The location is great with a short 5-10 minutes walk into the city center - but without the noise of its tourist-heavy main streets! The room is as described and depicted on the pictures, bathroom is clean and everything works as it should. Lee was incredibly kind and welcoming and the check-in worked perfectly.

Thomas2017-04-25T00:00:00Z

Sina2017-07-16T00:00:00Z

I was very lucky to stay at this place and I really could not have asked for more. It was the perfect set-up with everything I needed: spacious and private room with lock and key, wifi, and although not used - tv, washer/dryer, refrigerator, and other appliances. She also set out helpful information such as maps and tourist information. Just a short walk to shops and the marina, excellent location.

CC2017-06-06T00:00:00Z

Good place with low price in good location. Easy check in/out. Lee was very helpful,

Diego2017-08-01T00:00:00Z

Good location to Cairns center and a comfortable stay. Lots of amenities available, like kitchen, fridge, and washer (but do not you will need three $1 to use). The common spaces are well maintained and Lee is a flexible and kind host. She told us about a local food truck festival in the neighborhood we would not have known about otherwise, and we really enjoyed it on our last night! Thank you for the nice stay!

FREE Wifi? Comfy Bed? Close to the City? You have found the right listing and I would love to have you stay. My apartment is a one bedroom unit that offers a sofa bed in the living room therefore able to cater for four guests. We have a full sized kitchen and also laundry. The apartment is on the second level and there is no lift, so you need to be able to handle stairs. We have secure parking at the complex, a great pool and we are close to the major shopping centre in Cairns.

This unit is only minutes from the CBD, Esplanade and shops. It is ideal for business travellers as well as tourists wanting to have a tropical holiday.

Great little apartment with everything you could need for a comfortable stay.

Anna2017-02-13T00:00:00Z

Julie's place was the perfect home for my friends and I, particularly due to it's convenient location to the city and the esplanade which is just a short walk/drive away. She was prompt in responding to any of my queries and was very helpful and gracious as a host. Would definitely recommend staying here again!

Esther2017-02-04T00:00:00Z

The place was comfortable, clean, convenient to shops and easy walking distance to the esplanade of 15 minutes .

Lyndon2017-05-09T00:00:00Z

David2017-07-31T00:00:00Z

A newly renovated downstairs studio apartment in a beautiful old queenslander. Massive ceiling height, bright and light with your own little deck to enjoy the garden. Air con, shared laundry and 2 bicycles to use for the 10min cycle to the city.

This apartment was a really nice place to stay whilst in Cairns. It had everything that I needed for my visit and is situated in the downstairs portion of a nice Queenslander. I purposely stayed away from central Cairns, and this is close enough to walk into the CBD within 20 minutes during the day. Rod is a super cool guy who was very communicative and willing to help me out. Would definitely stay again my next time in the area.

Stacy2016-10-07T00:00:00Z

Skui & Rod's listing is secluded from the touristy area where you could enjoy some cycling throughout the trip although me and my friend are a bit too tiny for the bikes provided. The place was just as clean and spatial as the photos provided. Love the pets they are cuddly and adorable.

Vanessa2017-07-27T00:00:00Z

The host canceled this reservation 25 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.

Julia2016-10-06T00:00:00Z

Rod and Skui were wonderful. The pictures are dead on and the bed is so very comfortable. The bikes are very useful, so plan on taking them up on using those. Everything that I needed was there and they were fantastic hosts. I can't say enough good things. If I am ever back, this is where I'll stay!

Kate2016-05-31T00:00:00Z

My girlfriend and I stayed in this apartment for 7 nights when we were exploring the sights around Cairns. It is located close to the city (20 min walk), and the availability of the bikes make it very easy to get around. (Cairns has bike lanes on most roads). We used the bikes even for a full-day cycling route to one of the waterfalls in the south. The apartment is very spacious and clean, as can also be seen in the photos. It lacks a bit of a personal touch, compared to many other airbnbs, because the apartment is made for renting out. But if you are looking for a place to stay that is bigger, better equipped and more private than a hotel, it is the perfect choice. The hosts were very friendly and gave us tips for hiking routes, car rental etc. They fully respected our privacy, but were available as soon as something came up. The puppy is huge and very enthusiastic, so we pretty much avoided him. One of the cats was the cutest thing on the planet, and kept us company as soon as we opened the doors.

Mendel2016-06-30T00:00:00Z

Gave the hosts welcomed us directly He was very friendly. Cairns center and moved off in the distance is difficult to borrow bicycles go by foot. Bicycle saddle height adjustment also made it yourself. In the cockroaches in the house must try to forget a little uncomfortable, but nolmyeo with cute cat and dog food when the hammock

Seon Young2016-10-23T00:00:00Z

Skui and Rod have been very helpful, they offered bikes for guests to explore the city. When we had a problem with the oven, Rod helped us with great patience. The flat is private and definitely worth staying.

Jerry2017-01-08T00:00:00Z

Located in Bungalow, which is approximately 2 kilometres from the City is this lovely one bedroom, ground floor apartment that is perfect for your stay. It is an ideal place to come and explore Cairns, the rainforest and the Great Barrier Reef - but still be affordable.

The Complex
We are the owners of the entire block. There are 7 units in this complex and over the years we have tried to upgrade the property to bring it up to a good standard. This is a work in progress and we are constantly upgrading when we can. We have beautiful gardens externally - and inside we have renovated.
We are offering good quality accommodation at a budget price. Inside we have tried to make it as nice as possible for our guests, and compensate with the nice extras we provide.
The Space
Although an older apartment, we try to upgrade internally as quickly as we can. Having a well presented apartment is high on our priorities. Providing a very clean environment is just as important. We have recently renovated inside and the photos don’t do it justice. It is a really nice, clean apartment and perfect for your stay. It is fully tiled through out, including the bedrooms.
There is near new furniture and good quality for budget accommodation. We also have a large kitchen with electric oven and cooktop and a brand new fridge. We do provide a washing machine, but not a dryer. We have put lots of photos on so you can see the property internally and externally - it is a great, affordable property that is within an easy walk to the City Centre.
You get to use the entire one bedroom unit for your stay. There is a queen sized bed in the main bedroom. There is a lounge and a single day bed in the living area. This has a good quality single mattress - giving you a comfortable nights sleep. This provides beds for 3 adults comfortably. The bedroom and living area has a ceiling fan – perfect for circulating the air and keeping you cool in our hot summer. We also have a split system air conditioner in the living area and bedroom - perfect for our warmer weather.
The bathroom has a bath tub, with step over shower. The kitchen and bathroom are yours to use for the stay and are not shared with any one else in the building.
Guest access
You get to use the entire one bedroom apartment, including kitchen and bathroom for your stay. There is no sharing of facilities. There are common parking areas to the front, and common washing lines to the side.
Interaction with guests
We do not live on site, however keeping our guests is a high priority. If there are any issues at all during the stay all we ask is that a message be sent and we can try our best to resolve any issues quickly.
What is in the Apartment?
The property comes self contained and we provide linen to the beds, and towels for all guests. The kitchen is self contained with everything down to the wine glasses!!
To make your stay a little bit nicer, we do provide some extras. In the shower you will find shampoo, conditioner and shower gel. There is hand wash at both the kitchen and vanity. We provide the essentials like toilet paper, paper towels, aluminium foil, plastic wrap etc. There is a large fridge and freezer for you to use, a full cooking facility as well as a microwave. The unit does come with a washing machine, but no dryer. There are plenty of washing lines to the side of the property for you to use.
There is a television so you can watch all the free to air channels
We also have high speed internet at the property. You will receive the wifi details the day before you arrive. You and your guests can use this during your stay.
In the fridge you will find some basics to make your stay nice – we have tea, coffee, milk and sugar – we have a nice variety of teas as well as herbal teas. In the fridge you will find a variety of jams, peanut butter and of course the all Australian VEGEMITE!! There is tomato sauce, salt and pepper as well as oil and vinegar. Best of all we also leave you a packet of our famous Australian Tim Tam biscuits – you need to investigate the Tim Tam Slam and see how to best enjoy these classic Australian biscuits. We do not provide breakfast with in the booking.
There is a small balcony area to sit at the front of the apartment if you wish to smoke. We ask that you please do not smoke inside.
How Many People Can Stay??
This property is a one bedroom unit and there is one queen bed as well as a single day bed – ideal for THREE guests.
We do provide good quality linen to the beds, a quilt cover and pillows to all beds. As we live in a tropical environment where the temperature rarely dips below 20 degrees at night time - WE DO NOT PROVIDE BLANKETS. There will be a towel for each paying guest provided, as well as hand towels. Please note we do not provide beach towels.
Cairns Climate
We are located in the wet tropics. This means it is HOT all year round. Even in our winter it is still warm during the day.
Summer (December – February)
During summer in Cairns, average temperatures range from 23.6 - 31.4°C (74.5 - 88.5°F). The wet season begins building up around December, and most of the region's annual rainfall (around 2000mm / 78.7") occurs in the summer months.
Autumn (March – May)
It is still very warm in autumn, both day and night, with temperatures averaging between 21.5 - 29°C (70.7 - 84.2°F). The rain subsides from April, however the weather can be windy until August.
Winter (June – August)
Winter in Cairns brings slightly cooler temperatures and lower humidity, making it the peak tourist season. Average temperatures range from 17.5 - 26°C (63.5 - 78.8°F) and there is low rainfall.
Spring (September – November)
In spring average temperatures range from 20.5 – 29°C (68.9 - 84.2°F). This is the end of the dry season when humidity starts to build with the onset of the wet season from December. In November the reef comes alive with the annual coral spawning.
Keeping Cool in Cairns
We do live in the wet tropics and being hot and humid is part of daily life. Our winters are cooler, but during the day they are still warm enough to wear shorts and a t shirt.
In the property you will find ceiling fans in the living area as well as the bedrooms. To help keep cool, I suggest you turn the fans on – this will circulate the air around and help keep you cool.
There is air conditioning in the unit for you to use during your stay. In the bedrooms there are box air conditioner. If you have this set at 25 degrees, this will keep the bedrooms cool but still be efficient. Part of offering affordable accommodation is asking our guests to turn off the air conditioners when they aren’t home. There is no issue with using the air conditioners when at home.
As our minimum temperature – even in winter rarely dips below 20 degrees, we provide linen to the beds, and a quilt cover. There are no blankets or quilts in the apartment – keeping cool is our problem not keeping warm!!
I do need to stress that this property is an older property and it is not as cool as many modern properties. We have tried to provide sufficient air conditioning to make your stay comfortable.
Parking
Cairns is still a large Country town in many respects. Fortunately there is only timed and paid for parking right in the middle of the City. At Buchan Street there is plenty of parking in the carports in the complex. You can park there for free.
At the front of the building there is a large open area and you may park any where. These are not marked and are available for any of our guests to use during their stay. Again it is free to park and not timed.
Neighbourhood – Overview
The location of our Buchan Street property is great as the City Centre, Esplanade, shops and restaurants are not far away. It is approximately 2 kilometres away. The suburb of Bungalow is not far from the City Centre or the Esplanade so you can be walking along the foreshore after a short walk. There are lots of take away restaurants near by. The major supermarkets of Coles and Woolworths are closer into the middle of the City but still an easy walk away.
The walk into the Centre of the City will depend on your level of fitness and speed you walk. It will take any where between 25 - 40 minutes to get right into the middle of the City.
The reef tours all depart from the Pier, which is in the middle of the City and really easy to get to. Cairns has one of the best range of restaurants you could want – you really have to try Oasis Kebabs on the Esplanade – they do the best kebabs in the whole world.
The Airport is approximately 10 minutes drive away. You can take a taxi which will cost approximately $15 – 20 depending on the time of day and traffic conditioners. There is also Uber, however I personally have not used this service before.
Checking in and Checking out
As soon as possible, please confirm your arrival and departure times so we can put this into our calendar.
Check in time – 2pm
Check out time – 10am
One of the most important things to us is to provide a really clean property for our guests to stay at. A thorough clean is performed between guests, and to maintain the standard we need to have the check out time at 10am and the check in time as 2pm.
We have a lock box on site for the apartment – meaning you can arrive at any time without the need for us to meet you on site. Details of the property and how to access the lock box will be sent to you the day before your arrival. You will be provided with two keys for you to use during your stay.
Pet Friendly – What does that means?
One of the reasons we started doing Airbnb is because of the lack of pet friendly accommodation. We have two small dogs and we love to travel with them. The definition of pet friendly varies – for us it means they can come inside, they can sit on the sofa with you, they can sleep on the bed with you and they can be part of your holiday here in Cairns. We do not expect our dogs to sleep outside – so if your pets live inside with you, that is fine.
We do ask that you are mindful of other guests and have your pet on a lead at all times. We also ask that you pick up any poop from the gardens and ground. The property does not have an exclusively fenced yard and limited gardens. The Esplanade is a short walk away and the ideal place to go for a long scenic walk and enjoy our beautiful City of Cairns.

Very comfortable place to stay, clean and tidy and easy walk into town. Hosts maintain great communication and are very lovely.

Helena2017-08-28T00:00:00Z

Very nice flat, within walking distance to center Cains (20 min walk to central Mall). The floor could be cleaner and the wifi was quite bad (loss of connection and weak signal). Besides that it's a good place to stay!

The location of the apartment was superb....especially for first time visitors like ourselves. Everything from the Wooly's, the BWS, the bank, the train station, bus stop, Lagoon, Cairns and Tropical North Visitor Information Centre (with the italic "i"), Reef terminal were all within a four block radius of the apartment. It was fantastic to be in such a great location to experience Cairns for the first time. It definitely helped us understand the "lay of the land". Very comfortable queen size bed. We were sorry we didn't get to enjoy the pool as much as I thought we would. Thank you for a great first Airbnb experience

Renee2017-04-21T00:00:00Z

Thank you for being such a wonderful host.David and Peter always response our message promptly . They offered to pick us up from Cairns airport which makes our start of the journey very convenient. The location is very central and is walking distance to everything . The Woolies is just opposite to the apartment . They have explained throughly about the staying in apartment , the location and offered travel tips for Cairns.

This is a super apartment to base all your Cairns and surrounding activities from! Walk to a huge mall with a grocery store or the downtown shopping/ restaurants area is very doable. Everything you need to cook a meal, do your laundry if necessary, and a nice spot to chill by the pool. This would be nice for families or even a couple or two to enjoy their visit to the reef/ rainforest. Two thumbs up! Easy, breezy with nice staff~ who provided extra towels for a Great Barrier Reef day. Thanks for a great visit!

My place is good for couples, solo adventurers, and business travellers. Wombat's apartment is a 5-minute walk to transport & shopping centre, a 10-minute walk to restaurants & dining. A 15-minute walk to the beach & nightlife.
This generous 1 bedroom apartment has a queen bed, cupboard hanging space & has great breezes! This is a great self-contained studio in a clean, friendly share house environment. It has its own bathroom, kitchen and laundry.

We had such a great stay with David! He showed us around Cairns and took us to and from the airport. He is a very nice guy; we would definitely stay with him again if we return to Cairns. Perfect walking distance to everything you need in Cairns.

Sydney2017-05-24T00:00:00Z

David was a very friendly and accommodating host. The place would have been great for the money except I do hope that anywhere I stay has hot (or at least somewhat warm) water for a shower. That was a bummer. While the place was clean, there was no top sheet to sleep under the comforter. Other than that, I thought it was a pretty good place to stay.

Katy2017-06-28T00:00:00Z

David made check in very simple. Great wifi. Spacious enough kitchen and bedroom. Air conditioning and fan very useful to keep cool in the summer. Very secure location. Occasional geckos but it's a hot and humid environment.

Furthermore, David was to have us as long-established "Cairnser" a great help and always up for a friendly chat. Arrival and departure have been made extremely simple. Thanks for the great time with you Dave!

Welcome letter explain everything after an easy Check in. The house is close to a big shopping center and the city. Clean and tidy room, Wifi and AC working good. Can't say anything bad for this Airbnb. Would definitely stay there again! Thanks for a great stay in Cairns, Lee!

Jannic2017-04-06T00:00:00Z

Nice house

Léo2017-07-15T00:00:00Z

A very nice place to stay, very comfortable bed and for myself - coming from a cooler climate - the aircon was definitely appreciated! Nice and close to the shopping centre and an easy walk down to the city and esplanade is a plus. I found that the tour buses expected to pick up from hotels, by being within easy walking distance to the train station to get picked up was useful.

Andrew2017-08-18T00:00:00Z

Comfortable & convenient. Lee is a great host.

Andrew2017-08-22T00:00:00Z

Here I am again! And definitely will return. Absolutely lovely place and lovely host. It's got a great location, it's very safe and private, it's clean and comfortable. I have back injury and surgery to my spine, so I'm always sensitive to the quality of the mattress. Unlike so many hostel and hotel rooms where the mattress often give me grievance, I've had no issue here; the bed is so comfortable, I fell asleep very fast and wake up refreshed and happy. Lee is a wonderful and friendly host, she's very detail oriented when it comes to caring for the place and her guests. She respects your personal space and privacy, never disturbs you, and yet when you need her for anything (even just a random chat) she's there for you. I can't say enough how much I've enjoyed my stay here.

Anna2017-05-18T00:00:00Z

This place is very conveniently located, so close to everything and yet away from all the city uproar and have its own peace and serenity. You are guaranteed of personal space, safety, comfort, respect and a very warm friendly welcome from both Lee and the fellow lodgers. Highly recommend and I know I will definitely come back to the place myself.

Anna2017-05-15T00:00:00Z

My place is close to the beach esplanade, pier restaurants and dining, great views, shopping centres. You’ll love my place because it's close to everything and friendly. My place is good for couples, solo adventurers, and business travellers.

The apartment is central and close to everything! Hong is a very friendly host and always a message away when I got stuck. Thank you for letting me book in at last minute on the day!

Maggie2017-01-04T00:00:00Z

Good location, excellent host!

Justin2017-01-22T00:00:00Z

Hong was very friendly and welcoming. He met me promptly at the apartment and showed me around. He checked in with me throughout the week, which was very nice. I totally missed that there was no internet provided, but that was my oversight!

Mary2016-07-12T00:00:00Z

Great little apartment, highly recommended and Hong was an excellent host!

Ben2017-05-31T00:00:00Z

That was great room. We feel like our house. Very close to the shopping center, we can buy everything to stay. Thank you!!!

Masanori2016-09-17T00:00:00Z

Our host (Hongyu) was great. He was really accommodating with a very early check in and responded quickly to messages. The place itself was good. It was clean and stocked with shampoo, soap etc. We really liked that there was a mini fridge and a few appliances so we could grab snacks and keep our water cold. The location is a bit farther back from the main strip which was nice for us because it was quiet. It is still close enough to everything that we could walk wherever we wanted to go. The suite was across the street from the mall so it was easy to get anything you needed. We would stay here again.

Victoria2017-05-09T00:00:00Z

Hongyu has been a great host and helped us around local tips. The apartment is clean, close to anything you need and in nice neighborhood. Definitely recommend.

Ivana2016-12-11T00:00:00Z

Loved this stay in Cairns. The place was in a great location, clean and comfortable. Hong was a great host so easy to communicate with and place was as described.

Top floor apartment with a view to the mountains from every window. Close to everything and heaps of room to breathe. Private balcony and private bathroom / toilet for your exclusive use.

“Paradise Park” is in the suburb of Parramatta Park, situated on the fringe of Cairns City. It’s close to everything you need and is generously proportioned, so you’ll have heaps of room to breathe. The building is a residential building, not a tourist hub, so you’ll have a chance to experience how life is for people who call Cairns home, not just a holiday spot.
Within 5 minutes walk you have all the basics; an amazing sushi place, a Thai food takeaway, 24 hour Coles express, a great massage parlour, the Cairns Showgrounds, secluded walking paths/bike tracks that go through rainforest reserve.
Within 10 minutes walk, you have access to Cairns Central, with all the major shops, a cinema, lots of eating options. We’re also pretty close to the Green Ant Cantina, if you’d like the best Mexican food in town, or perhaps to sample their amazing beer which is brewed on-site.
It’s a 20 minute walk to the Cairns Esplanade, which is the heart of waterfront living in Cairns. This is where you’ll find the night markets, amazing local restaurants, bars and clubs, the Cairns lagoon, my favourite ice creamery and beautifully landscaped walking / cycle paths along the waterfront. It’s always full of energy, and is one of the most beautiful places to visit at sunset.
On your way to the esplanade, you'll cross the beautiful Lilly Creek, discover the Cairns Aquarium, Munro Martin Parklands, Cairns Civic Centre (amazing big name performers perform here), and the Centre of Contemporary Arts (which is free to experience).

My home is situated in a city fringe location, so it’s not far from anything, but it’s far enough from the tourist hubs that you can relax and take it easy without getting caught up in the hustle and bustle of backpackers and nightclubs. It’s a AUD$8 uber ride to anywhere in Cairns City. It's about AUD$15 - 20 to or from the airport.

Andrews place was just amazing. Great view from the apartment and easy walking distance to the Main Street an to cairns central. He is a wonderful host and makes you feel right at home soon as you walk in the door. He has plenty of knowledge of the city and where the best places are to visit. Would highly recommend anyone to stay with Andrew! Can't wait for my next trip up to cairns!

Hayley2017-07-28T00:00:00Z

Perfect place to stay and relax for a couple of days. Lovely host and a beautiful apartment.

Onno2017-09-07T00:00:00Z

Andrew was a great host, his place is very neat and tidy, linen was great and he also offered advise about the local area. Definitely recommend staying here!

Ethan2017-08-13T00:00:00Z

Andrew is really nice and we enjoyed a lot to stay at his place. It is clean and well equipped. I would recommend his place to the others!

Wing Tung2017-08-09T00:00:00Z

I had an amazing time in Cairns!! Andrew is one of the best person I met on my trip..always friendly, kind and willing to help..I'll always keep good memories. The apartment is absolutely fabulous..super clean, spacious, modern with a big living room, a big terrace and all facilities, like laundry and private bathrooms. The room is fabulons as well, super clean, big comfy bed with a big balcony to watch beautiful sunrise :) I highly recommend this accommodation!!!

Annick2017-08-02T00:00:00Z

Great place to stay. Beautiful mountain outlook. Very friendly and welcoming guy. Comfy bed with a great breeze and private bathroom. Couldn't complain about anything.

Tastefully furnished, this one bedroom, self contained apartment is a perfect home away from home.
Situated in a secure gated complex, boasting a beautiful in-ground sparkling pool and covered parking. A mere 15-20 min walk to the Cairns City Esplanade and Lagoon.

This one bedroom apartment with separate lounge room is air conditioned throughout. The apartment is situated in a secure gated complex of 20 units in total. A sparkling pool is situated at the rear of the complex and there is covered parking for one vehicle which is accessed via the secure automated gate. The apartment is on the second floor of the complex, accessed via staircase. Through the front door you are greeted by an open plan living. A kitchen complete with plenty of basic cooking utensils, oven and fridge awaits you. The bathroom doubles as an en-suite, features a shower, vanity and toilet. The laundry complete with washer and dryer is also housed here.

Parramatta Park is a Cairns city fringe suburb, there is a small shop and takeaway shop a block away from the complex.

Great location. Close to CBD, but far enough away for it to be quiet. Would recommend having a car or Uber. Bit far to walk.

Zara2017-07-01T00:00:00Z

Communication with the agent was excellent. Probably the best I've had so far with Airbnb. Also the apartment was very clean and tidy upon arrival This apartment is small and functional, cooking facilities are limited if you choose to eat in. At a brisk pace it's about a 15-20 min walk to the center of Cairns. The apartment is in a secure and quiet area.

Garth2017-06-24T00:00:00Z

A nice, simple place to stay in Cairns. The washer/dryer were a great perk!

Kerry2017-06-28T00:00:00Z

This property was great value. It was close to the central parts of this lively city. We loved it here as it was close to shopping, cafes, markets. Thank you for sharing this place.

Lina2017-07-08T00:00:00Z

Lounge furnishings a little sparse with only a 2 seater couch and no coffee table. Location great with 15 min walk to central cairns

Roland2017-08-03T00:00:00Z

The apartment is fully equipped & has everything needed to make your stay a pleasant one ...the stair well & general approach however did in my opinion let it down...

Moira2017-06-06T00:00:00Z

The apartment was basic and useful. It is centrally located, and parking in the shaded garage was great. All the basic amenities were there, so it was a good base for exploring Cairns and surroundings. The cleanliness was however not up to the level, there was quite a few dusty areas and there was a funny odour in the shower. The "sparkling pool" a the back is pretty small. Please note there is no wifi on the premises if this is something you are looking for (not advertised - our mistake for not checking.)

Jasmina2017-08-12T00:00:00Z

Good value for money, quaint apartment with laundry facilities. Good communication with host who even let us keep our bags in the apartment after check out! Would stay again

The accomodation was very well located (walking distance from the mall/city center)with a nice view. We were impressed by the tidiness of the flat.

Teddy2017-04-15T00:00:00Z

The accommodation is very well located in central Cairns and close to shopping, public transport, beach and lagoon. The apartment was very clean. Tibor and Silvia are friendly hosts and "helpful". Tibor took his time to advise us on all the activities to do in Cairns. We felt like home and it was a very pleasant stay. We highly recommend this accommodation! Thanks for all Tibor and Silvia!

It's a cozy and nice place.

zhu2016-11-14T00:00:00Z

We are visiting Australia from Seattle for 4 months. Kurt's apartment is very strategically located, well maintained and had everything we needed. Biggest shopping Center in Cairns a 5 minute walk, restaurants and dive boat harbour a short walk. I had a swimmer's ear infection and got quick treatment and a prescription filled at a clinic and pharmacy 1 block away. Barbecue and very nice pool on site. There is a construction project underway about a block away, but we never found it to be intrusive or bothersome. Easy secure parking, although this would be the place to be if you don't have a car. Kurt was readily available by phone and had great suggestions for things to do. We intended to stay for 6 days, but extended to 2 weeks. This is our 4th AirBnb, and I would rate it A+.

Ian2016-11-23T00:00:00Z

We only contacted Kurt by text but he was always very quick to respond and very helpful. The apartment was located out of the centre but a convenient 5 min walk to shops/bars/restaurants and harbour. The apartment was exactly as described and the photos very accurate. Very comfortable bed. Air Con very efficient and quiet. Pool small but perfectly set in tropical garden. Communal BBQ also available! NOTHING to do with the apartment I know, only tiny gripe was that only 2 loungers at poolside. Would highly recommend and would certainly stay again.

yvonne2016-02-29T00:00:00Z

Beautiful apartment in walking distance from everything in Cairns. Kurt was very responsive and helpful! Bonus: the dive shops are familiar with the apartment block and picked us up right outside our door.

Ben was very accommodating and friendly, he met us at the apartment and even provided an extra bed when we became a party of six last minute. We stayed for a week and the apartment was spacious enough for us. Ben also provided bread and milk upon our arrival, although kitchen materials were limited. Distance to city center is further than it appears on the map and when walking one has to cross a major roadway, which can be challenging as a pedestrian. If booking here, consider renting a bike or car, or be open to walking 20-25 minutes to get to the city center. Ben also helped us book our taxi to the airport for our departure, which was very helpful because we could not get through to the taxi company on the phone.

Katya2016-08-01T00:00:00Z

Great apartment with a nice pool to use. The balcony was great and we were able to easily walk to town or get a quick cab ride. The apartment was clean and had great air conditioning/fans.

The most praise is that he has a pick-up service for people who travel really convenient. This place is very spacious apartment, clean, facilities are complete, three air conditioning very effective, we do not use the washing machine when driving at night Big Ben to teach us, it is really touching. About 15 minutes walk from the mall, convenient and quiet. Super recommend this accommodation!

Ben and Shine were very welcoming and easy to communicate with. happy to open up what ever time we arrived. The apartment was very clean. It is on the 3rd floor with no lift so might be difficult for some people. walking distance to shops and only 15 min walk to the centre of town. The washing machine was broken but ben collected our laundry and had it back to us the next day!
